d4 Hosea

Read Hosea in the bible. http://www.esvbible.org/Hosea+1/

Hosea uses a type of oracle called a "covenant lawsuit" to get a message across. God is portrayed imaginatively as presenting a summon, charge, evidence and verdict. After a sentence is announced the terms for violating the "covenant" are dealt out. (Hosea 3:3-7, 4:1-19) 

This is a modern rendition of Hosea's heartache. This is part 1, you can watch the other 5 parts here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8fhdPf25hc&list=PL0E4A71D4DBC2F595
If you have watched all 6 parts, what do you think of this film version of Hosea? What do you marvel at in the book of Hosea?
